/
Food Well Alliance is set to distribute $110,000 in grants to 62 community gardens in and around Atlanta as part of the non profit’s ongoing work to “connect and build healthier communities.”
Since its founding in 2015, the organization has focused on supporting more than 300 community gardens, orchards and urban farms through volunteer work and direct resources. Its Community Garden Grant program has supplied $570,000 in the past nine years to gardens in a five-county area around Atlanta.
This year, Food Well aims to distribute $110,000 in direct funding through two different grants: The $1,500 Garden Improvement Grants for 60 community gardens and the larger Garden Forward Grant that supplies $10,000 to two gardens.
